There are a few Statues of Liberty around the world, including the most famous on Ellis Island in New York, USA. While that statue is an imposing 305 feet, 6 inches high (93.1 metres), the world's smallest Statue of Liberty fits within the eye of a needle. At approximately 0.5 mm in height, "Lady Liberty", by UK artist Willard Wigan, is the smallest Statue of Liberty that exactly conforms to the dimensions of the New York original. The sculpture is made from a tiny speck of gold that was painstakingly hand-carved using special tools crafted by Wigan himself.
